MEGHAN Markle is cold and calculating and “pulled the rug from under” her ex-husband, says a former friend of more than 30 years.

 

Ninaki Priddy and Meghan were “like sisters” from the age of two, but fell out when the Suits star, 36, moved to Toronto and split with hubby Trevor Engelson, The Sun reports.

Designer Ninaki, who was maid of honour at their wedding in Jamaica, said: “What came to light after Trevor and I spoke ended my friendship with Meghan. I think everybody who knew them both was in shock”.

“All I can say now is that I think Meghan was calculated, very calculated, in the way she handled people and relationships,” she told The Sun.

She is very strategic in the way she cultivates circles of friends.

“Once she decides you’re not part of her life, she can be very cold. It’s this shutdown mechanism she has.

“There’s nothing to negotiate. She’s made her decision and that’s it.
